Toward Principles for the Design of Ontologies Used for Knowledge Sharing
- IN FORMAL ONTOLOGY IN CONCEPTUAL ANALYSIS AND KNOWLEDGE REPRESENTATION, KLUWER ACADEMIC PUBLISHERS, IN PRESS. SUBSTANTIAL REVISION OF PAPER PRESENTED AT THE INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON FORMAL ONTOLOGY
, 1993
"... Recent work in Artificial Intelligence is exploring the use of formal ontologies as a way of specifying content-specific agreements for the sharing and reuse of knowledge among software entities. We take an engineering perspective on the development of such ontologies. Formal ontologies are viewed a ..."

Optimizing Search Engines using Clickthrough Data
, 2002
"... This paper presents an approach to automatically optimizing the retrieval quality of search engines using clickthrough data. Intuitively, a good information retrieval system should present relevant documents high in the ranking, with less relevant documents following below. While previous approaches ..."

Paxos made live: an engineering perspective
- In Proc. of PODC
, 2007
"... We describe our experience building a fault-tolerant data-base using the Paxos consensus algorithm. Despite the existing literature in the field, building such a database proved to be non-trivial. We describe selected algorithmic and engineering problems encountered, and the solutions we found for t ..."

Nanotoxicology: an emerging discipline evolving from studies of ultrafine particles. Environ Health Perspect 113:823–839
, 2005
"... Although humans have been exposed to airborne nanosized particles (NSPs; < 100 nm) throughout their evolutionary stages, such exposure has increased dramatically over the last century due to anthropogenic sources. The rapidly developing field of nanotechnology is likely to become yet another sour ..."

Results of older biokinetic studies with NSPs and newer epidemiologic and toxicologic studies with airborne ultrafine particles can be viewed
Manufacturing Engineering Perspectives
, 1995
"... has become a very prevalent topic in the area of manufacturing engineering. It has been viewed as one of the most effective, potential, and miraculous cures for maintaining the winning position of the American manufacturing industry in global competition. However, because CE is such a comprehensive ..."

engineering perspective, as well as several industrial applications of CE. Because the studies on CE are still evolving, this paper aims to stimulate further explorations by providing a thor-ough survey on both theoretical and application research efforts in the past decade. Key Words: concurrent engineering
Brain Tumors: An Engineering Perspective
"... With the rapid growth in technical evolution, medical field is growing like anything. For making good sound we need cooperation from both hands. In this manner, now a day’s medical and engineering technology, both are joined together and developing new innovations in medical field. These innovations ..."

What's New on the Web? The Evolution of the Web from a Search Engine Perspective
, 2004
"... We seek to gain improved insight into how Web search engines should cope with the evolving Web, in an attempt to provide users with the most up-to-date results possible. For this purpose we collected weekly snapshots of some 150 Web sites over the course of one year, and measured the evolution of co ..."
